No, that doesn't work.

the acid eats away at your enamel.
So yes, your teeth can get whiter but if your teeth do get white its not healthy because that means it killed your enamel.
Try Crest Whitestrips. I use them all the time.
They are perfectly safe and will not damage your teeth, unlike strawberries.
Actually, it is speculated that white strips with peroxide in them can have protective effects so they might actually be good for your teeth!

no if you brush your teeth right after you eat an acidic food, it wears away your enamal...it will make it MUCH MUCH worse that way.

it's BETTER then ok!

Apparantly you can. I have a site that tells you how below.

No. Why would you purposely place acidic fruit on your teeth?? The only thing you'll get is enamel erosion over time and sensitivity. Brushing afterwards will only make it worse by wearing away more enamel, just like the first poster said.
Do something that's safe and ADA-approved.

It is not advisable to brush your teeth with strawberries. The sugar and acid in the strawberry will harm your teeth more than it will help if you don't immediately brush your teeth with regular toothpaste. If you choose to brush with strawberries, be sure to brush your teeth immediately afterwards with fluoride toothpaste, and also to floss.
